Fiber Image Transmission System Base on FPGA

Abstract

This design used FPGA and its embedded Rocket IO IP core, to accomplish interfaces conversion between the camera link parallel and the Rocket IO serial, using a custom image transmission protocol, to build a platform which interconnect the sender with the receiver, system realize high-speed real-time image transmission on optical fiber. This paper describes the thought of system collectivity design, the software and hardware design of transmitter, the software and hardware design of receiver, and the key technologies among the system, such as attributes of Rocket IO, transceiver state machines of data-packet and data transmission protocol are introduced in detail. The experimental results indicate that system work rate up 2.5Gb/s, the transmission link is stable, reliable and no error code, the advantages of this system is high bandwidth, high anti-jamming, and reduces the amount of wiring and so on.
